The Old Manse - Concord, Massachusetts

Minute Man National Historical Park Reverend William Emerson built The Old Manse in 1769 and it remains relatively unchanged today. The Old Manse has stood witness to momentous events that helped shape the American character; from the first shots of the American Revolution on April 19, 1775 to the literary revolution of the mid-19th century. It was home to revolutionaries and to writers, such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Nathaniel Hawthorne, as well as to many remarkable women, such as Sarah Alden Bradford Ripley, who blazed a path for revolutions to come.
